Well, after lots of hinting on the forums, the lite theme has finally been finished up! It matches our Neowin Lite option for the main page.

With the exception of the logo, the IPS banner ad, and a 1x1pixel spacer image, there are almost no images on the forum pages. For even faster performance, you can turn off avatars, signatures, and user-posted images found as an option under My Controls. Load times should be siginifigantly faster for our 56k users under this new theme.

If you find any quirks with the new theme, be sure to post them in this thread and we'll do our best to track them down!

How to lose the fat and go lite:
My Controls > Skin and Languages > Choose 'Neowin Lite" from the dropdown

Yeah, that's the next goal, but I'm waiting on IPB 1.2. The new theme for 1.2 is supposed to have 90% less tables (although, there are still a few). I'll merge the core changes into this theme at that point, most likely

It's ok. I'm getting excited waiting for the new IPB theme

Other themes are planned for the future, probably around our new CMS being finished up. This was intended as something to match our main page's Lite option. People like the lite page, so we decided to extend the option to the board
